Website and Forum / Re: Super heros hit eye-rack.........

an interesting link there, thanks for that.
  Millar makes some good points in that article.

a quibble: "science fiction is always only ten minutes in the future"? Really? So time travel should have been developed in 1910 (or whatever year came ten years after publication of the H.G. Wells book).

it looks true to the porny image the character always had. I couldn`t get the sound whilst watching the trailer, so had to imagine Jennifer telling the little girl wise things about the importance of botoxed lips and red undies in the fight for justice. Or something.

Prog / Re: PROG 1416: To die for............

well, I still haven`t read the prog, so you can hardly tick me off for not being interested because I haven`t posted here, PhilT. Finally I couldn`t stand it and read the thread, relying on my super-forgetting powers to stop it from spoiling too much for me.

The first Synamon story was a snore-fest, dull as ditchwater and a real dud. It`s possible this story is better, I remain optimistic, although baffled as to why they`d bring it back.

The cover looks kind of dumb to me, maybe it looks better in the flesh.

By the way, haven`t we had some great covers recently? That faces cover was completely brilliant and the shattered badge cover was similarly impressive. Tharg, you`re spoiling us.

cheers,

Floyd

after church, took my son to hamburger shop, then to a park. we rented a tandem bycycle and had a bit of a ride and he joined a group of kids piling autumn leaves on the grates from the subway (when the train goes past the leaves flutter up in to the air). Went home, had dinner, watched Thunderbirds, played superhero games...you know, kind of thing

a dogpile search for images produces this and a somewhat odd website

book 2 seemed to have better ideas but the pace was all screwed up...not enough build up. For mine

General / Re: 100% Record thrillvoting...
13 November, 2004, 07:08:47 AM
I`m a compulsive voter, me. I vote on every thrill I read, as well as on the artists and writers. I don`t vote on the letterers because, although I know hand lettering is better than just typed text and it`s a difficult job, I really can`t see a lot of difference there.
  I also vote on past covers from time to time. Every prog I get, I go back through the ones I don`t have and pass judgement on the cover art.
  SOme of the creators have very few votes.
